About Carrie The Musical...
Carrie White is a teenage outcast who longs to fit in. At school, she’s bullied by the popular crowd, and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she's dominated by her loving but cruelly controlling mother. What none of them know is that Carrie’s just discovered she’s got a special power, and if pushed too far, she’s not afraid to use it.

About the Studio Series...The Studio Series provides performance opportunities that are generally targeted towards specific age groups. Studio Series productions may contain a limited number of roles. As such, not everyone may be cast. Smaller cast sizes allow for an experience that places a particular focus on developing participants' skills and abilities in greater depth as well-rounded performers and storytellers. With a stronger focus towards artistry and storytelling, the production designs and performance venues of these productions will vary to allow for flexible staging, creative concepts, and audience experiences.
Our Creative Team members bring with them substantial experiences in educational and professional theatre that have made them masters of their respective creative disciplines. These Teacher-Artists are adept at designing and facilitating a nurturing, yet rigorous experience to challenge performers to achieve their personal best. Our goal is to create an environment where each individual feels safe to learn, grow, risk and have fun while engaging with this art form in meaningful ways that elevate their understanding of the craft, themselves and others as people and artists, and the world around them.
